it would help if you tell us which software did you use to generate these numbers...

Exactly! What machine? What browser? What OS? I've never found a speed test that would work without proper java support (I've asked here several times).

OK, tried the software (it sure does mess with my screen rez!)...
I get 000184000 apx.....
Which would seem to translate to about 1.8 MB/S (meg per second)

Not bad for an 11MB/S wireless card on an A1200!

That's great for your Miggy! I'm sure that your actual bandwidth from your Internet Provider is much higher. You'd have to test your bandwidth with a modern Windows/Linux machine to get a more accurate measurement though.

Hey Brian, remember that just 10 years ago, most peeps' internet bandwidth was a whopping 700 KB/S!!! Thank Ipthar for the Flux Capacitor! :roflmao:
